I just wonder what do all of you think about this future factories, please, let me and all the rest people know!!!! Inside The Factories Of The Future https://t.co/AhHjP7mNVC via @wef
I don’t want technology to “evolve” another bloody inch. I hate that everything demands an app or QR code. I hate supermarket self-checkouts that scold you for “unexpected items” as if you have committed a hate crime with a packet of biscuits. I hate ringing a company and suddenly you’re trapped in a doom loop of an endless conversation with a robot before being left on hold long enough to waste an entire afternoon. I hate how local bank branches are closing and customer service is no longer communication with a bank manager but with an AI bot. I hate websites that force you to prove you’re human by enforcing a dystopian farce quiz to spot 3 sets of traffic lights in a fog of pixelated misery. I hate digital app passwords, verification codes and subscriptions. I hate how town centre car parks often no longer accept cash payments and the only way to park is by registering to another bloody app. I hate receiving unsolicited phone calls from an AI automated robot. And I really hate how the whole digital circus excludes half of the country’s pensioners simply because they never signed up to live inside a smartphone.
Rant over.
I have posted this proprietary indicator in the past: Red areas - selling zones. Green areas = buying opportunities. We are at the opposite end of the intermediate cycle up here.
Linda Raschke’s 12 Technical Trading Rules:
1. Buy the first pullback after a new high. Sell the first rally after a new low.
2. Afternoon strength or weakness should carry into the next day.
3. The best reversals usually happen in the morning.
4. Larger gaps have higher odds of continuation.
5. Watch how price behaves around the previous day’s high and low.
6. Previous day’s high and low are key pivot points. Watch for rejection or breakout.
7. The last hour often reveals the true strength of a trend.
8. High volume near the close can signal continuation the next morning.
9. The first hour establishes the framework for the trading day.
10. Early signs of a strong trend deserve aggressive attention.
11. Four enduring principles:
• Trends are more likely to continue than reverse.
• Momentum precedes price.
• Trends end in a climax.
• Markets alternate between range expansion and contraction.
12. Nobody knows what happens next.
Successful traders don’t trade predictions.
They react to what actually happens.
Price first. Prediction last.
In Tokyo, seven-year-olds still ride the subway alone.
No parent. No guard. Just a small child with a train pass and a yellow hat.
Visitors film it like a miracle.
It is not a miracle.
It is the result of decades of high-trust policy: consistent rules, controlled borders, and a society that still expects people to follow the same basic standards.
That kind of safety is an inheritance.
Once it is spent, it does not return easily.
Quote of the day:
Your dream is not waiting to be discovered, it's waiting to be created.
That creation can start today, but only on the heels of a real decision backed by commitment and willingness.
After years of cashing in on climate fear through renewables, fake meat and carbon schemes, Bill Gates is quietly rewriting the story.
In 2021, Gates warned that climate change would erase coastlines, kill millions and make outdoor life impossible.
Now, in a recent memo, he says the planet will cope just fine. But this was always the case.
Satellite data show a greener planet with CO2 feeding more vegetation. The Lancet confirms cold kills at least nine times more people than heat. And studies point to reduced cloud cover, not CO2, as the main cause of recent warming.
Great Barrier Reef coral cover is at record highs, and so too are polar bear populations.
The climate didn't collapse. The narrative did.
Kari Mullis. Nobel de bioquímica. Su otra área de especialización fue la climatología, de la que habló en términos muy claros:
- “No hay ni una pizca de evidencia de que los seres humanos hayan tenido algún efecto sobre el clima...Somos como el musgo en el cemento".
- “La climatología se ha convertido en una especie de broma. Toda esa gente reunida en Copenhague y decidiendo que todo el mundo tiene que dejar de cocinar con estufas en África… esa gente no sabe nada”.

🦌Noorwegen breekt complete windparken af omdat er misvormde rendieren worden geboren
Het Hooggerechtshof van Noorwegen heeft beslist dat twee grote windparken met in totaal 151 windmolens in Storheia en Roan moeten worden verwijderd, omdat ze inbreuk maken op de rechten van het inheemse volk van de Samen en hun traditionele rendierhouderij. Naast de beperking van de weidegronden werd ook vastgesteld dat de windmolens negatieve gevolgen hebben voor de rendieren zelf, waaronder gezondheidsproblemen en misvormingen bij de dieren, die mogelijk worden veroorzaakt door de stress en de nabijheid van de installaties.

SP - first close below 5 SMA after 7 closes above favors longs. However, it is also a 3 bar triangle, which is breakout mode. Breakout mode trumps retracement trades so keeping an open mind. CPI data might get the party going...
To all the Supermarkets and big commercial stores that operate 'Self Check-outs'....
You are heading towards almost exclusively self-checkout now. Yesterday I went shopping at one such store and the lady checking receipts at the exit was stopping everyone.
I didn't choose to participate in that nonsense, I had already filled my trolly, emptied my trolly and scanned the items, refilled my trolly, and so I just skipped the exit line and left.
I heard her saying "Umm - Excuse me “ as I kept walking and raised the receipt above my head, leaving the store.
You can either trust me to do self-checkout, or you can put your cashiers back in place like it used to be.
• I'm not interested in proving that I did your job for you.
• If you want me to be a cashier with no training then that's your problem not mine.
• Keep employing young people and give them job opportunities.
YOU DON'T PAY ME TO SCAN MY OWN SHOPPING.
YOU DON’T GIVE ME STAFF DISCOUNT FOR WORKING FOR YOU.
Signed…
All of us
Profits be for people…

Check out all the NR7s in assorted markets for today. Remember, NR7/ID does not imply a breakout or trend day. Watch early volume. If light, it leads to a very choppy day - as in further consolidation after a big move. This can be called a "bracketing market" where the market does morning price discovery and often whipsaws in both directions.
